I'm completely new to Java Scipt although over the years I've messed around with VBA & Macros in Excel. I am now using Google Sheets almost exclusively, hence needing to learn Java.
I'm trying to jump to a specific cell (E5) if the current cell is (C14). This is what I've put together so far using scripts 'borrrowed' from others.
ie On entry of data in Cell C13 and pressing Enter, focus goes to Cell C14. The next data is to go into Cell E5.
function onSelectionChange(e) {
var sheetNames = ["Score Input"]; // Set the sheet name.
var ranges = ["C14"]; // Set the range to run the script.
var range = e.range;
var sheet = range.getSheet();
var check = ranges.some(r => {
var rng = sheet.getRange(r);
var rowStart = rng.getRow();
var rowEnd = rowStart + rng.getNumRows();
var colStart = rng.getColumn();
var colEnd = colStart + rng.getNumColumns();
return (range.rowStart >= rowStart && range.rowEnd < rowEnd && range.columnStart >= colStart && range.columnEnd < colEnd);
});
if (check) {
jumpToDetails();
}
};
function jumpToDetails() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Score Input");
var goToRange = sheet.getRange('c14').getValue();
//sheet.getRange(goToRange).activate();
SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getRange('E5').activate();
}
It worked, or did until I inserted a row in the sheet, and even though I have changed the associated cell addresses, it now doesn't work?
Two questions. 'Why has it stopped working'? and 'Is there a simpler way to do it'?
I prefer using onEdit(e) on range C13 and jump to E5
For instance here is a script that jump from one cell to the following in addresses'list
function onEdit(event){
var sh = event.source.getActiveSheet();
var rng = event.source.getActiveRange();
if (sh.getName() == 'Score Input'){ // adapt
var addresses = ["C13","E5","E10","H10","E13","H13","E16"]; // adapt
var values = addresses.join().split(",");
var item = values.indexOf(rng.getA1Notation());
if (item < addresses.length - 1){
sh.setActiveSelection(addresses[item + 1]); // except last one
}
}
}
if you want to be able to add rows and columns, play with named ranges (for instance ranges names 'first', 'second, 'third')
function onEdit(event){
var sh = event.source.getActiveSheet();
var rng = event.source.getActiveRange();
if (sh.getName() == 'Score Input'){
var addresses = ["first","second","third"];
var values = addresses
.map(ad => myGetRangeByName(ad))
.join().split(",");
var item = values.indexOf(rng.getA1Notation());
if (item < addresses.length - 1){
sh.setActiveSelection(addresses[item + 1]); // except last one
}
}
}
function myGetRangeByName(n) {
return SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getRangeByName(n).getA1Notation();
}

I'd like to have a user click/highlight a column (or a checkbox at the top of the column, then click a single button to run the script on all checked columns.
var values1 = "Pass";
// Where to look for Auto:
var enabledDisabled = sheet.getRange("B3:B140").getValues();
var testResultsRange = sheet.getRange("AL3:AL140");
var testResults = testResultsRange.getValues();
// Keyword to look for in Auto: column
var putValues = [];
for (var i = 0; i < enabledDisabled.length; i++) {
if (enabledDisabled[i][0] === "Yes") {
putValues.push([values1]);
} else {
putValues.push([testResults[i][0]]); // Push the existing cell value
}
}
// Put value1 inside row, column# for test result
testResultsRange.setValues(putValues);
Instead of hardcoded ranges, I'd like it to run on every column that is checked, basically.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!
One solution I usually use is to put checkboxes on the first row of the columns, then with onEdit I run the script by clicking on the checkbox and by detecting the column by getColumn ()
function onEdit(event){
var sh = event.source.getActiveSheet();
var cel = event.source.getActiveRange();
if (sh.getName()=='mySheet' and cel.getValue()){
var col = cel.getColumn()
// run your script in column 'col'
cel.setValue(!cel.getValue())
}
}
I have a code that helps me copy a row of data based on a condition in a given column. I have a sheet called "Master" which has around 1000 rows of data. I want to move a row of data to a sheet called "Master Responses" if column 1 of "Master" has the word "Positive" or "Negative" in it. I used the or function (||) in the IF STATEMENT to select the condition (that is if "Positive" is entered or "Negative") but the row is only copied when I type "Positive" in the first column. When I type "Negative" in the first column the row is not copied. Also, I wanted to know how the code should be modified if I had to call the "Master Responses" sheet by using ".openByID or .openByURL". I have attached the code, please feel free to edit it. I am new to scripting and have been stuck on this for over a month. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
function onEdit()
{
var sheetNamesToWatch = ["Master"];
var columnNumberToWatch = 1;
var valuesToWatch = ["Positive"];
var valuesToWatch1 = ["Negative"];
var targetSheetsToMoveTheRowTo = ["Master Responses"];
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var range = sheet.getActiveCell();
if(sheetNamesToWatch.indexOf(sheet.getName()) != -1 &&
valuesToWatch.indexOf(range.getValue()) != -1 ||
valuesToWatch1.indexOf(range.getValue()) != -1 && range.getColumn()
==columnNumberToWatch)
{
var targetSheet = ss.getSheetByName(targetSheetsToMoveTheRowTo[valuesToWatch.indexOf(range.getValue())]);
var targetRange = targetSheet.getRange(targetSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 1);
sheet.getRange(range.getRow(), 1, 1,
sheet.getLastColumn()).copyTo(targetRange);
}
}
I'm not sure about .openByID or .openByURL, however this should fix the problem with "Negative".
I also added extra parenthesis on the first if statement so that it was clear to me what it was checking on.
function onEdit()
{
var sheetNamesToWatch = ["Master"];
var columnNumberToWatch = 1;
var valuesToWatch = ["Positive"];
var valuesToWatch1 = ["Negative"];
var targetSheetsToMoveTheRowTo = ["Master Responses"];
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var range = sheet.getActiveCell();
if((sheetNamesToWatch.indexOf(sheet.getName()) != -1) && ((valuesToWatch.indexOf(range.getValue()) != -1) ||
(valuesToWatch1.indexOf(range.getValue()) != -1)) && (range.getColumn() ==columnNumberToWatch))
{
if (valuesToWatch.indexOf(range.getValue()) != -1)
{
var targetSheet = ss.getSheetByName(targetSheetsToMoveTheRowTo[valuesToWatch.indexOf(range.getValue())]);
}
else
{
var targetSheet = ss.getSheetByName(targetSheetsToMoveTheRowTo[valuesToWatch1.indexOf(range.getValue())]);
}
var targetRange = targetSheet.getRange(targetSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 1);
sheet.getRange(range.getRow(), 1, 1,
sheet.getLastColumn()).copyTo(targetRange);
}
}
I have a google spreadsheet that i have one last problem i cant seem to solve.
i added a button to this script, and when i press the button it triggers the AddClient function.
How can i make the script below loop down all rows in column 3 searching for the yes value, when it finds it, copy the row below it to sheet "client" and then stop?
function AddClient(event) {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var s = event.source.getActiveSheet();
var r = event.source.getActiveRange();
if(s.getName() == "SETUP" && r.getColumn() == 3 && r.getValue() == "yes") {
var row = r.getRow() + 1; // Add 1 to the active row
var targetSheet = ss.getSheetByName("client");
var target = targetSheet.getRange(targetSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 1);
s.getRange(row, 2, 1, 4).copyTo(target, {contentsOnly:true}); //Only selecting column 2, then the following 4 columns
}
}

Any help greatly appreciated!

Since you have a static form the position of the informatin to be copied will not change
Since we know we want to copy over the data we won't need to do any validation of where we are so all of that stuff can go
Sheets have an appendRow method that take care of the bookkeeping involved with finding the last row
This allows us to simplify the script to the following:
function AddClient() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var data = ss.getSheetByName("SETUP").getRange(25, 2, 1, 4).getValues()[0];
ss.getSheetByName("client").appendRow(data);
}
Edit:
To remove duplicates you could do the following:
function AddClient() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var data = ss.getSheetByName("SETUP").getRange(25, 2, 1, 4).getValues()[0];
var clients = ss.getSheetByName("client").getDataRange().getValues();
if (!clients.filter(function(row) {return data.join("|") === row.join("|");})) {
ss.getSheetByName("client").appendRow(data);
}
}
Note that for the particular example there are some problems because the leading zero gets cut off. Sheets is a bit weird and sometimes tries to force the format to be a number even when you set the cells' formats to Text...
I have successfully linked my BigCommerce account to my Google Sheets (Drive) account so every time I receive a new order in my store the order is automatically exported into a Google Sheet. Unfortunately, an entire order is listed on one row with multiple items added into one cell. What I need is to have each product on its own row; for example, if someone orders three different products Zapier would create three new rows. This functionality exists when directly exporting orders from BigCommerce, but the "Zap" does not use the BigCommerce export function when pulling order information from my store to the Google Sheet.
I know this is a shot in the dark, but I am hoping someone might have a solution that I can implement. Thank you for your help!
I have created a script that perhaps could be used or modified, at least until you find if the process can be done within Zapier.
You can try the script in the following ss: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ggNYlLEeN3UYtZC_KlOGwpyII9CzOLKMnIOKIDrPJPM/edit?usp=sharing
The script assumes that orders arrive in the tab named Zapier. As things are set up, you would run the script through the Custom Menu.
If there are 2 orders or more, click the menu for each order.
The complete rows appear in the sheet FullList.
(if you want to play/try again, you will have to manually delete the rows in FullList once they are showing).
function processForNewOrders() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sourceSheet = ss.getSheetByName('Zapier');
var destinationSheet = ss.getSheetByName('FullList');
var sourceValues = sourceSheet.getDataRange().getValues();
var destinationValues = destinationSheet.getDataRange().getValues();
var index = [];
destinationValues.forEach( function (x) {
index.push(x[0]);
})
var newOrders = [];
for (var y = sourceValues.length -1 ; y > 0 ; y --){
if(sourceValues[y][0].toString().indexOf('po_number') != -1 ) continue;
var i = index.indexOf(sourceValues[y][0]);
if(i != -1) break; // This readies only the fresh orders for processing
newOrders.push(sourceValues[y]);
}
Logger.log(newOrders)
for (var j = 0 ; j < newOrders.length ; j++){
var output = [];
var orderLine = newOrders[j];
Logger.log('orderLine = ' + orderLine);
var circuit = 0;
var items = 1
while (circuit < items){
var row = [];
for (var z = 0 ; z < orderLine.length; z++){
var cell = orderLine[z];
// Logger.log(cell);
var lines = cell.toString().split(',');
if(lines.length > 1) items = lines.length;
row.push(lines[circuit] ? lines[circuit] : lines[0]);
// Logger.log('row =' + row);
}
circuit ++;
Logger.log('circuit circuit circuit =' + circuit)
output.push(row);
}
}
Logger.log(output);
if(output != undefined)
destinationSheet.getRange(index.length+1,1,output.length,output[0].length).setValues(output);
}
function onOpen() {
var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
// Or DocumentApp or FormApp.
ui.createMenu('Custom Menu')
.addItem('Process new order', 'processForNewOrders')
.addToUi();
}
I have two sheet from others and wish to create another one which combine both sheet together.
e.g.
SheetA:
Name value
A 10
B 20
SheetB:
Name value
C 30
D 40
Then I want to create one SheetC:
Name value
A 10
B 20
C 30
D 40
And if I change SheetC, I wish data synced to SheetA or SheetB automatically.
I can implement the doc combine with below script:
function runme() {
var docA = "<Doc Id A>";
var docB = "<Doc Id B>";
var sheetName = "Sheet1";
appendSheet(docA,sheetName);
appendSheet(docB,sheetName);
}
function appendSheet(docId,sheetName) {
var sourceSpread = SpreadsheetApp.openById(docId);
var sourceSheet = sourceSpread.getSheetByName(sheetName)
var activeSpread = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var activeSheet = activeSpread.getActiveSheet();
var activeSheetName = activeSheet.getSheetName();
sourceRng = sourceSheet.getDataRange();
sourceRows = sourceRng.getValues(),
activeSheet.appendRow(sourceRows[0]);
for (i = 1; i < sourceRows.length; i += 1) {
activeSheet.appendRow(sourceRows[i]);
}
Logger.log("total: " + i);
}
But it seems it's difficult to sync information from docC to docA and docB.
